t'People in this business often wit

at one Of the prominent Broadway
jewelry stores. "For instance, when
Aimee was at the height of her popu-
tarity here, some of the presents sent
her were fit gifts for = queen. One day
| showed Aimee and a friend of hers a
diamond bracelet that took Nine.
Almee's eyes at once, It was not that
the diamonds were large, but because
they were exquisitely set. We had re-
ceived it that day from Europe"
What is the price OF that?' asked
Aimee.
told her it was $1,000. She
looked at it for a long time then went
away.
"A week after that Aimee came into
the store alone. She asked to see the
bracelet again and I sho wed it to her
She held it up in her dainty fingers
and seemed fascinated by It,"
won't you sell it for less than ST.
2O0? she asked; it seems to ME rather
high
II assured her that the price was
very low, which it was. She hesitat-
ed for several minutes, and then with
q shrug OF her pretty shoulders she
said:
"'My friend says he will buy itior me
# he can get it for 81 900. HIpay you
the 5000 difference will you tell him
that the price has been reduced to

II told her that would be satisfac-
tory to the firm, and with sigh she
took out her pocketbook and handed
me two bran new $1OO notes. The
next day the gentleman called, &C
companied by another friend, and
asked for the bracelet.

Queer Letter of a Suicide. .

A few days ago little, old, gray
haired man, attired in the garb OF
laborer, put up at the Marcy house
in Chicago, but did not register his
place Of residence, simply signing HIM
self J. H. Mcknight. He was inclined
to be garrulous. He was. g. sufferer
from asthma, and one night he
complained more than usual when he
retired to his room. He was found
dead on,his bed the next afternoon by
q domestic in the hotel. A half-emp.
tied bottle OF morphia was found in
his vallse, and 1t is supposed the drug
was taken with suicidal intent. In his
valise were found several pairs of jean
pantaloons, an old gold watch, broken,
and probably kept as a. relic, and the
following queer letter addressed to
the coroner:
To the Coroner: Don't accuse these
people Of anything; they have treated
me WE'LL Every man is born to cut a
figure and I have cut mine have
bulldozed every thing that has got in
my way. I have been big bug on
this earth while have been here. I
am going to try the esprit world. !
have: always been square and hon
est man, and expect to be so in the
world to come. There is nothing that
makes one man greater than another
but honesty, and if l find any body in
the other world that amt honest !
expect to cuss him. OUT and pass on.
There is a great spirit that rules the
universe, and that spirit is honesty.
George Washington was great man.
Why? Because he was an honest man.
Abraham Lincoln was a great man.
Why? Because he was an honest man.
Honesty IS all in this world and all in
the. world to come. Bob lngersoll is
the smartest man in America, and but
few people know it. He is too smart
to- believe that something can be made
OF nothing he is too smart to believe
that the Being that is represented as
being love would oonsign his creatures
to everlasting fire. There is a great
spirit that rules this universe, but who
is he and where did he comet from? Let
him come up and give an account OF
himself. How did he get his position?
He seems to be. a. big bug.

A French Anarchist.
Paris Correspondence London Telegra

Paris Correspondence London Telegraph.
Clement Duval, worthy successor
OF his namesake, Claude. Duval, the fa-
nous highwayman, was tried at the
Assizee for having committed bur.
glary in the house OF Mme.. Madeline
Lemaire, the well-known flower paint
er- The trial attracted considerable at
tention, as the accused is an anarchist
who has impudently asserted his right
to rob for the purpose OF living and to
slay tor the sake of liberty. The
Court House was we'll filled, and as
Duval and his associates entered, a
good deal ofcuriosity was manifested.
The burglar is a weak looking man
about SO years OF age, and is a lock-
smith by trade. In October last he
and another man named Turquais,
who has not been found by the police,
entered Madame Lemaire's house,
which is in the neighborhood OF the
Pare Monceau.. They stole $500
worth OF jewelry, and having turned
everything in the house upside down
they tried to set fire to the place. The
smoke was seen by the neigh hbors, who,
ON going into the house, found that
oil had been thrown over the furniture
so as to accelerate the combustion.
The damage done has been estimated
at 94oO. A few days after some OF
the jewelry was offered for sale in the
Rue Tronchet by man called Didier,
who was arrested and gave informa.
tion which led to the capture of Du-
val. The burglars belonged to band
of anarchists called La Panthere des
Batignolles. Duval was only arrested
after a fierce struggle with the police
man Rossignol, whom he stabbed in
the neck, lions and arm, but who sue
ceeded in biting the burglars hand so
as to make him drop his knife. While
in prison Duval stated that on leaving
the hospital ne was unable to 6nd
work, and he then resolved, in COM
pany with an anarchist named Tur-
quais, to rob and kill. Turquais help
ed him to enter Mme Lemair's, and
went off with some OF the booty to
London. Referring to his attack on
the policeman, Duval said he hated
the representatives of abominable
laws of the land, which were directed
against the working classes. He in
sisted that 10 had committed no
crime in breaking into dwelling for
he only sought a. just restitution OF
property, which should have been
more equally divided, and hethreaten-
ed the vengeance of all anarchists on
the opulent classes at an early date.
He was convicted.

For the first time. there was a dis
cord in the music. No one noticed it
There was 8 break, g. pause, then q
crash of chords, then silence.
'fIt was you who drew me back
among the living, Phil" murmured
the bride, at rest on the heart of her
husband. Not the bands of death
could hold me from you yet, dear. It
was the yearning of my spirit that
spoke to you through the music of
Bardlnell's violin"

ed, in the abnegation of an humble
gratitude, lit is to Bardinelli I owe

'To Bardinelli?"
She turned in her gracious beauty
and moved toward the place of the
musician.
He did not rise to meet her. He
was sitting bending forward, and his
face was averted as from a sight dis
tressing to him. His violin had slip
ped from his grasp and was resting
against his knee, two of it's strings
broken and snarled. She laid upon
his shoulder the hand from which he
had extracted the venom o. the tar
antula.
"Bardinelli!''
Her voice had never before appealed
to him in vain. Now he gave it no
heed. She bent over him, her bridal
veil blending with the long hair float
ing over his shoulders. Her gentle
clasp closed upon the fingers still hold
ing the taut bow. Then passionate
cry broke from her lips and she turn
ed to her husband:
"He ls dead! He has given his life

Iow Royal

The strict ceremo onial of the dinners
q Queen Victoria has not changed
since her assump tion Of the .throne.
Aquarter Of an hour before the time
fixed for therepast- generally s clock
AL the party invited to dine with
the Queen meet ID the grand salon and
form themselves into q half-circle
about the door where she is expected
to enter. The Queen, on entering,
makes beautiful courtsey (for which
she is renowned j, then bows to the
gentleman, and gives her hand to the
ladies, who courtsey deeply. She then
goes in first to table, accompanied
generally by one of her sons. IF any
imperial or royal person is present,
he sits at her right hand. But even
in case of General Grant she
placed the Princess Beatrice between
chem. The queen never removes her
gloves during dinner, except at state
lhanquets. This is singular piece of
etiquette, and one would think it would
be exactly the reverse. Her gloves are
w,of white kid, embroidered with
black, never worn but once, and be-
come, after using, the perquisites of
the ladies-in-w waiting. The queen has
g. small and beautiful hand. AS SION
as she finishes a certain "plat," every
one else stops eating, as when she fin
ishes her fish every one else stops eat
ing fish, etc. After she has spoken to
her guests on either side, conversation
may become general, but in q sub
dued tone, always deferring to-,
the sovereign. Sir Arthur Helps,
who was her private secretary, used
to tell an amusing anecdote of
belngsnubbcd by her for telling a. rath-
rfunny story down the table, amongst
the ladies-in waiting, to- relieve the
monotony of dreary dinner. when
the Queen remarked "What is it?
We ere not amused" She has, how
ever love Of iun,. and sometimes
laug ghs heartily.
The dinners at the Quirinal are far
more simple as to etiquette. The
same formality is observed in the en-
trance OF the King and Queen, but the
conversation is more general and the
Queen does not wear her gloves. She
converses in English fuently. The
King only speaks Italian and French,
SO the conversation is generally in
these two languages. French, OF
course, is supposed to be a. universal
language.
The dinners OF Germany are notlong,
but they are formal and tedious, and
the cooking does not commend itself
to all tastes:
The perfection of a dinner is found
IN London, generally at the houses OF
Ambassadors, who combine the ex-
ce]lences of all nations, with the follies
OF none. After asking the consent OF
ladies present, the Italian and Turk,
ish Embassies allow the smoking oi
cigarettes between the salad and des-
sert. This ta& hion prevails III France
and Russia, ladies smoking quite as
freely as men. The dinners OF the Car
and the richer Russian Princes are
models Of their kind. 1t was the Rus
slams who invented the idea OF serving
the dishes all from the outside; hence
a service a Ia Russo, which prevents
the table cloth from being smeared
with gravy and other greasy sub
stances. The choice porcelain and
glass, the gold and silver, beautiful
ornaments--these are the wonder oil
all travellers who visit Russia.-Har-
Der's Bazaar.

THE QUESTION ASsinlHIED. j,

\ Brightly wstt the moon inclining u
Z Ger her honey led door;
q Sweet was niSht-in silver shining;
# u Yet she yearned for something more.
Perfumes were her senses sleeping
In laint yet subtle tide;
Fragrant breath OF roses sleeping
Left her still unsa tisfed.
Mid the lilues. soft lamenting,
Grieved the plaintive nightingale;
Yet she coldly, hall rssenting,
Listened listless to his tale.
Though n night such peace possessing
Should all captiousness disarm,
Yet she found herself confessing
Nature somehow failed to charm.
Did the moon smile down too brightly?
Love.bird weary with his trill?
Roses cense the air too slightly?
What-oh! what--was lacking still?
As she pondered thus in sadness.
Stole her lover from the door,
Clasped her to his heart in gladness,
Then the night lacked nothing more.

Weather Proverbs Relating to
the Moon.

These are very numerous. Some
persons suppose that the character Of
the weather can be foretold by the
hour of the day or night when the
| changes OF the moon occur. Others
think that change OF the moon On
Saturday is Railways followed by q
severe Storm" and still others say
that "A Fridays moon, come when
it will, comes too soon." Then
again it is said if the points OF tho
new moon are upward there will
be dry weather: while others take tho
opposite view and say if they point
sideways it will be dry. But leaving
all these and many others like them,
there are g. few proverbs about tho
moon which may be worth noting
and testing. We give some OF these:
When the moon is visible in the day
time, the days are relatively cool.
In Western Kansas, it is said, that
when the moon is near the full it new
er storms, and the sailors say the full
moon eats clouds.
| # the full moon rises clear, expect
fine weather.
A large ring around the moon and
low clouds indicate rain in twenty
tour hours; a small ring and high
clouds, rain in several days.
Last night the moon had a golden
ring. but to-nig no moon see.
| The larger The halo about the moon,
the nearer the rain clouds, and the
sooner the rain may be expected.
When the moon is darkest near the
hor izen, expect rain.
If the full moon rise pale, expect
rain.
If on her cheeks you see the maiden blush:
| The ruddy moon foreshows the winds will
| rush.
| II the moon Is seen between the scud
and broken clouds during a gale it is
expected to scud away the bad wealth
er.
| In the old OF the moon q cloudy
morning bodies a fair afternoon.
If there be general mist before SUM-
rise near tho full moon, the weather
will be fine for some days.
| II the moon show silver shield,
Be not afraid to reap your field,
s But il she rises halyed round, =
You soon will tread on deluged ground.
The rising Or setting OF the moon
will be followed by q decrease Of a
storm which is then prevailing.
